Never in a million years pre-sleeve would I have ever considered having a family portrait done.  The last professional picture taken of my husband, son and me was about 7 years ago at my brother's wedding.  This year, for my husband's birthday, I am going to have a portrait done of me and our son for him to hang in his office.

Yay!  Family photos are so fun!

even at my heaviest, we did annual family photos (I have young kids)- and I can't wait until this Fall to do the next one to see the difference!

How awesome!  

A few years ago we gave my parents a family photo shoot as a Christmas present and, I've got to say, I can't wait to do another one now that I'm thinner :P  I think we're going to make it an every 5 year gift.

That's great Megan! :) I hear you - I HATE having my picture taken but have tried not to actively avoid it for my girls. I don't want my daughters to EVER have a bad self image - fat or thin - and if they see mom avoiding cameras (like I used to see MY mom do!) I am afraid they will go there. :) That being said - I will be front and center AFTER wls! Lol..

Post the pic after you do it! :)
